What. The. Actual. F*CK. Man? They're going to...if I got this right....legislate against the ol' vote-with-your-wallet rule? They're going to legislate that how? Every Texan legally required to turn in a receipt showing you bought a Spicy Deluxe with your tax returns or GTFO?
"No business should be discriminated against simply because its owners donate to a church, the Salvation Army, or other religious organization."
First, you know the Salvation Army reads this and is like "ugh, [expletive], don't drag us into this."
Also, Texas? One of only two states to pass anti-Sharia laws, which are basically nothing more than scare tactics saying "we hate brown people who pray to a different god? Is claiming religion can't be discriminated against? For realsies? At least be consistent so we can take you like 0.3% seriously over this, Texas.
